Pax Dei’s 2025 Retrospective Returning to Its Roots — or Moving Away From Them

If you’ve read Pax Dei’s 2025 Developer Retrospective, this video is a response to it. After playing Pax Dei daily since Early Access, I share my thoughts on the game’s current state, the decisions made in 2025, and the direction outlined for 2026. While the game has strong foundations and real potential, I’m increasingly concerned about whether its development is still aligned with the original vision of a true social sandbox MMO.
